The US has more than 100,000 contaminated groundwater sites and the total cost to remediate them will exceed $100,000,000,000. In order to design cost-effective remedial measures, the properties of the subsurface must be understood and hydrologic inverse analysis helps us understand the properties of the subsurface. While there is a way to go before practical applications to hydrology can be made, this project demonstrated that the D-Wave system can be used solve hydrologic inverse problems.
